New Lights Here and There

Hey,

I have mentioned to a few of you my plans to upgrade some of my lights. I wanted to replace my driving lights up front as well as fog lights to better match my HID headlights. I know a lot of people have done this already.

However, I also do not like the orange turn signals in my tail light cluster. I do not know why, but I have always been a fan of red rear turn signals. So after about 2 months of searching I finally found some 7440 (actually 7443) bulbs for the rear lights.

Here are pictures of the results.


The first shot is of the bulb in rear cluster, the second of the light on in the day light and the third is of the light on at night.

The first shot is the stock driving 194 light.
The second shot is of the 4 LED 194 light I replaced the stock light with.
The third shot is of the 4 LED 194 light.
The Fourth shot is with the new driving lights (no new fogs yet)
The Fifth shot is of the Stock lights for comparison.
